Fleeing the Gilded Cage: Don’t Want to be the Billionaire’s Wife Chapter 105
Chapter 105: No Special Privilege
Quiet discussions among the crowd began again.
“I think this woman has gone mad. She may be pretty, but does she really think she can
do whatever she wants?”
“People who offend the princess of the Paloma family never end up well. I’ve personally
witnessed it!”
“Anyway, it was Miss Paloma who started provoking intentionally from the beginning.
Could it be that they had some prior conflict?”
Amy naturally wouldn’t say it out loud in front of others: she had almost been slapped by someone, and if she hadn’t pretended
to be sick, she might not have escaped the
outcome of being beaten up.
The more she thought about it, the more annoyed she became. In her view, everything that happened was all because of
Martina’s presence. If it weren’t for Martina, how could she have suffered such grievances? She was the precious princess in the
Paloma family
anyway!
The encounter between Amy and Martina resembled a clash between two celestial
bodies, Mars and Earth. Neither of them showed any inclination to ease the tension;
instead, they were both prepared for an all–out confrontation.
Alejandro watched the situation deteriorate and felt somewhat helpless. But to be
honest, deep down, he stood for Martina.

A woman’s background didn’t really matter; even if she came from an ordinary background, so what? As long as she was
determined and excellent enough, everything else
was irrelevant.
Amy was just relying on her privileged background to feel superior to others, but other
than that, she had nothing.
“Martina, don’t push it too far! The people attending this event were high–ranking individuals. What were you even worth?” It
seemed like Amy couldn’t hold back anymore
and expressed her true thoughts in front of so many people.

Unable to simply stand by, Alejandro stepped forward and positioned himself discreetly in front of Martina, shielding her from
Amy’s hostile gaze. “Miss Paloma, no matter what,
Miss Martinez was a friend of our Rodríguez family. Please let her go. It was best not to
speak rashly, as words could bring trouble.”
How could Amy not perceive the implied threat in those words? She hadn’t anticipated that the things were different now, and
that so many people would willingly rally behind
Martina without any hesitation.
But what was so great about this Martina? Wasn’t she just a shameless woman who forcefully occupied a place that didn’t
belong to her?
However, regardless of how Amy felt, she couldn’t embarrass herself too much due to her respect to Alejandro. Even if she was
internally displeased, all she could do now was restrain her temper and say, “Don’t get me wrong. I was just having a
conversation with Miss Martinez. But look at how she treated me! She had the audacity to slap me in the
face. No matter what, it reflects on the reputation of the Paloma family. Don’t you think
Miss Martinez was in the wrong for doing that?”
Amy covered her cheek, holding back her temper and managing not to burst into tears.

It truly hurt, and it was evident that Martina hadn’t shown any restraint.
Without batting an eyelid, Alejandro asked, “I wonder what you want to do?”
Amy expressed bluntly, “I want to give that slap right back to her, of course.”
“That may not be possible. As I mentioned earlier, Miss Martinez is a friend of our
Rodríguez family.” Alejandro forced a smile, his expression appearing fake, hinting at a lack
of sincerity. “Moreover, she is the best friend of my younger sister. If a young girl were to
suffer injustice in our Rodríguez family, it would be my responsibility.”
Alejandro’s polite but firm attitude left Amy at a loss for words.
Obviously, Alejandro desired to support Martina. However, he intentionally refrained
from mentioning Amy’s public injury. It was evident that he was displaying favoritism, wasn’t
it?
Even Martina couldn’t help but look at Elena in a new light because her own actions
could be considered reckless.
According to Martina’s thinking, she hoped to escalate this matter to Benjamin as soon
as possible, thinking that it might help her get out of the situation sooner. Who would have
thought that at this crucial moment, Alejandro would choose to help her?
After giving it some thought, Martina realized that it might be due to the “love the house and its crow” principle. She was well

aware that Alejandro had always been highly
protective of his sister. It was just that this protection wasn’t explicitly evident.
At this moment, Elena also felt a sense of relief in her mood.Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm

She wished she could give her brother a thumbs up right now. Well done! This was what being a fine young man from their
Rodríguez family means!
Amy was so infuriated that her chest heaved fast. She felt her heart condition might even flare up at this moment.
Elena once again revealed her sarcastic side. “Paloma, stop pretending.. During the critical moment last time, you suddenly fell
ill, and I found it suspicious,”
“But I simply chose not to expose you. Now, do you really believe you can pull off the same trick once again? Are you hoping to
feign an illness and escape because you know
you can’t win?”
“Let me remind you, we have a private doctor here. If you dare to fa .com fast updateke an illness, I dare
to have him treat you!”
“I cannot guarantee whether he will treat you for deafness or dumbness, or
inadvertently end up causing harm to you. After all, he isn’t particularly skilled in complex conditions. He can only do his best. So,
why don’t you give it a try?”
A smile appeared in Alejandro’s eyes. He could clearly hear the intentional mockery
from his sister, couldn’t he?
Martina’s lips curled up with a faint smile. It felt great to have so many people standing
by her side, protecting her.
Upon hearing those words, Amy dared not fake an illness anymore. Even if she did, it
would be noticed right away. Elena was truly insane!
“Fine... Fine... I’ll remember what happened today!” Amy said.
Alejandro saw through the situation but didn’t reveal it. “That’s good. It’s getting late..

Miss Paloma, you should find a place to sit down.”
...
Alejandro didn’t give any special privilege to Amy.
With Alejandro’s involvement, the farce ended prematurely.
Martina had expected a chaotic scene, and she felt somewhat sorry. Who would have thought that it would also implicate Elena
and Alejandro?
“Alejandro, I’m really sorry. My personal grievances ended up implicating you guys,” Martina said apologetically.
Elena casually responded, “So what? We’re best friends. It’s abnormal if you’re not dragging me into it.”
“I can’t stand Amy’s arrogant and domineering attitude. She thinks she’s a princess, but what she need is a doctor! ” Elena
exclaimed. “This is the 21st century, and there’s no place for princesses anymore. Just because she sees herself as a princess
doesn’t mean
everyone else does. I just helped her learn a lesson!”
